Let the age of Brandon be x.
Therefore the age of Michael is 4x
Also the age of Michael is 27+x
So
4x=27+x
3x=27
X=9
Brandon age is 9years while Michael's age is 36
Okay here's an example so if we have 2, 3/2*1/2 we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. So in order to solve a mixed number you add the denominator, numerator and whole to get 7/2*1.2
So Multiple
7/2*1/2
Refine the fractions
7/2*2
Multiple the numbers 2*2=4 to get
7/4
and that equals 1, 3/4

Answer:
150 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1/2 of an inch is 20 miles, we can assume that 1/4 of an inch is 10 miles, since half of 1/2 is 1/4 and 1/2 of 20 is 10.
Equipped with this information, we can divide 3 by 1/2 or multiply 3 by the reciprical, 2/1 to get how much we should multiply 20 by.
3*2=6
20*6=120
Then we can multiply 10 by 3 and add that on our answer, since there are still 3/4s left and 1/4=10 miles.
10*3=30
120+30=150
The actual distance is 150 miles.
Hope this helps!
